I have a CentOS 5 development box, that I'm attempting to install SVN and 
Trac on, in preparation for eventually migrating our existing SVN/Trac 
server from WinDoze to Linux (probably CentOS, possibly a more recent 
CentOS).


Last week, I was able to figure out how to get SVN up and running, first 
through Apache, and eventually through svnserve.


But now that I've turned my attention to Trac, I'm a bit stymied. Yum 
couldn't find it, and I couldn't make head or tail of the instructions for 
registering RPMforge (which appears to be deprecated anyway). I then found 
instructions for doing it with "easy_install," and got as far as installing 
easy_install itself, but it blew up when I tried to install TRAC (and 
unfortunately, what I know about Python wouldn't buy you a cup of coffee):

[root@localhost ~]# easy_install Trac

As I said, what I know about Python (or easy_install, for that matter) 
wouldn't buy you a cup of coffee. To quote a line from a certain David 
Hedison movie, "Helllllpppppp meeeeeeee!!!!"
